Technical description

The device is equipped with an electrochemical heated diode sensor to detect refrigerant leaks.
The flexible sensor probe has a protective foam filter in the tip. The device emits an audible signal when the sensor probe is moved past a refrigerant leak.
If the sensor probe is held over a refrigerant leak the signal will gradually fade and the device will not respond to this leak anymore.
This allows multiple leaks to be identified in one area.
The device has two sensitivity settings for testing in larger ares and for the detection of small refrigerant leaks.
The device has 3 LEDs to indicate the operating status:

LED Status Description
All LEDs On Device is warming-up
Off Device is switched off
POWER Flashing Batteries are low
HIGH Flashing High sensitivity setting is selected
Flashing rapidly Refrigerant leak has been detected
LOW Flashing Low sensitivity setting is selected
Flashing rapidly Refrigerant leak has been detected

Before first use

Inserting or replacing the batteries

  1. Remove the battery cover.
  2. If present, remove the empty batteries.
  3. Install 2 D-sized alkaline batteries (fig. , page 3).
  4. Put the battery cover back on.

Installing or replacing the sensor
The sensor is not pre-installed.

  1. Remove the sensor cover by lifting it at the outer edge.
    CAUTION! Hot surface
    When replacing an old sensor, it may still be hot from previous usage.

  2. If present, pull the old sensor out of the sensor socket.
    NOTICE! Damage hazard
    Do not apply excessive force to avoid bending the sensor leads.

  3. Align the sensor leads with the holes on the sensor socket and gently press down the sensor (fig. , page 3).

  4. Re-insert the sensor cover and press it down around the edges.

Operation

Switching on
NOTE
The device requires some warm-up time before it is ready for operation.
➤Press and hold the control button to turn the device on.
The 3 LEDs indicate the operating status (see table, page 5).
✔ The device is ready for operation when a beep sounds and the HIGH or LOW LED start flashing.

Switching off
➤Press and hold the control button to turn the device off.
✔ All LEDs turn off.

Changing the sensitivity setting
➤Press the control button briefly to switch between the high or low sensitivity settings.
✔ The HIGH or LOW LED is flashing respectively.

Testing for refrigerant leaks
Observe the following notes when testing for refrigerant leaks:

  • Only use the device on systems with sufficient refrigerant and their engines not in operation.
  • Affecting the airflow around the sensor probe can lead to false refrigerant leak detection.

Avoid quick or sudden movement of the device as well as windy conditions during operation.

  1. Place the tip of the sensor probe within 5 mm of the suspected refrigerant leak.

  2. Slowly (25-50 mm/s) move the sensor probe past each suspected refrigerant leak.
    ✔ If a refrigerant leak is detected, the device emits an audible signal and the LED flashes more rapidly.
    NOTE
    If the sensor probe is held over a refrigerant leak, the leak signal will gradually fade.

  3. If a refrigerant leak is detected, pull the sensor probe away for a few seconds and bring it back to further specify the leakage location.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the device
NOTICE! Damage hazard

  • Do not bring the housing of the  device into contact with solvents such as gasoline.
  • Ensure that no water or cleaning agent enters the housing of the device.

➤Occasionally wipe the housing of the device with household cleaning agent or isopropyl alcohol.
➤Wipe the tip of the sensor probe with a clean, dry cloth.

Replacing the sensor probe filter
The sensor probe filter needs to be changed when it becomes plugged with water or oil.

  1. Pull the sensor probe filter out of the tip of the sensor probe.
    Use a paper clip or similar object as a tool.

  2. Push the new sensor probe filter into the tip of the sensor probe.
